It is awkward. Oh how I know it. lol. But believe me, awkward times between friends are better than angry ones between ex-friends.

So, I talked to S today. Me, S, and A all have the same math class and we all sit next to each other. I asked S if she had gotten my text asking if she wanted to do something yesterday and she said yes. I figured she'd get the hint about me wanting to know about the text I sent right before that, asking if she still liked A. After class ended, A had already left, and S goes, "And about the other text, yes I do still like him. Why?" I started kinda panicking and was like, "Uh... Well, I don't know if I can tell you right now. I'm kind of a coward. Just have your phone with you tonight so I can text you about it. It's kinda important." And then I took about 5 more steps down the hall, and thought that she might get the wrong impression so I was like, "You know what, I'll just suck it up and say it right now. I hope it doesn't upset you, but [friend] told me that A told her that he likes me." S said she was fine with it, that she didn't think that A would've asked her anyways... She seemed almost too ok with it though. She kept saying, "Oh you need to get a prom dress and tell him what color!" and stuff like that. I dunno. She says she's ok, but still... I feel better now that I talked to her though.

So the girl previously mentioned, rejected me and then said she didn't want to be my friend, keeps, well, looking at me. It's kind of disturbing. I'm not sure how to take it, but I really don't want to talk to her, and I'm not sure if I want her even if it does mean something.

DO IT! You don't want to end up asking yourself what-if. It sucks, believe me.
So I'm going to prom with the guy that my best friend and I have gone back and forth between liking (we've both liked him foreverrrr). He's kind of like the 3rd of our group of best friends, if that makes sense. She told me to ask him to prom and apparently told him to ask me a while ago (she's a sophomore so she can't go unless she's asked). But now... she's giving us crap about it (sarcastic "have fun at prom" and such). I mean, I don't want to lose her over this guy, but he's one of my closest guy friends, and besides, she wanted us to go together.
What do I do?!
edit: btw - these are the same people I was referring to on the previous page in my reply to Lprdgecko.

Ah. Well just keep your eyes open, it could be anytime =) Or just say to him sometime, "Hey can I talk to you in a little bit? I have a question." Something along those lines. lol

Moe-- best way to get younger people into prom: have him "take" her to prom, and you "take" a guy that she likes. Then when you get to the dance, you switch dates so she (and her real date if he's a sophomore) can get in. That's what people at my high school did all the time.
And heepwah-- I would say to wait to tell him how you feel. If he just got out of a relationship, then right afterwards is really not a good time imo. Example, I broke up with Boy 1. A few days later, suddenly Boy 2 is around me, buying me dinner, then and we're having really long deep conversations, telling me I'm amazing and incredible, and how could Boy 1 treat me like crap? I rebounded on him. And then I came to my senses and asked myself wth was I doing because I was using him to forget about the crap that happened with my ex.
So my two cents is to let him lick his wounds, and rebuild the friendship with him again before you start confessing how you feel about him.

Guh. I feel awful.
After years and years of battling with my religious beliefs, and after having recently done much research on both sides (i.e. going to Bible study a few times and campus worship, but also reading about atheism and evolution), I decided yesterday that I am an atheist. I didn't make a big stink about it, really, and you'd think I feel liberated from fooling myself forever about my non-existent belief in God.
But no, I just feel like a big butthead. I made a stamp on my deviantART that had the quote, "Science flies people to the moon. Religion flies people into buildings," which I guess is a harsh generalization, and naturally some people told me why it offended them and such. It was nice intellectual discourse. But heck, I didn't know I'd be feeling so bad about suddenly defining my beliefs as such. Maybe it's because I'm not used to being in the minority. (Despite my atheism, I'm very conservative, which for my whole life has been the political majority except for Clinton, but I was too young to understand or participate in political discussion.)
It's just confusing. I don't want to keep bringing it to the table. I'm going to discuss it with my parents this weekend and give 'em a call, but I feel crappy about it. Any... advice?

^Maybe since you're feeling strange (for lack of a better word) about declaring yourself an Athiest, then maybe it's not what you truly believe deep down? Just a thought, might not make sense.

Yeah, I had thought that, but I know it's not the case. I've been denying this to myself for almost 10 years now. I've never believed in God but was too afraid to say that because of what my parents might think, what society might think, and et cetera. Now I'm just faced with the bombardment of people telling me I'm intolerant and all this other crap, when really it just boils down to me feeling that only science is the truth and not faith in a supernatural power.
I guess I'm getting all stressed out because I'm not used to "rebelling" against anything.

Can anyone give me a pointer on talking to a girl to whom I have not spoken, and with whom I have no friends in common? I realize that is retarded, but I'm not expecting much to come out of it, so I think I can do okay.
